Jacksonville City Council Workshop - November 4, 2026

The Jacksonville City Council workshop on November 4, 2026, included an update on the Resilient Coastal Communities Program (RCCP). Staff requested authorization to apply by November 10 for no-cost Phase 3 engineering and design assistance for the Georgetown Road Stream Restoration Project, intended to address flooding, culvert capacity, and water quality. The design would help the project compete for future construction funding and could provide roughly $500,000 in value usable as a city match, according to the presentation. Kleinfelder, Inc. supported Phases 1 and 2, which were nearing completion. Council voted to authorize staff to submit the Phase 3 application; no construction contract or construction funding was approved at this meeting.

Council also received an introductory presentation of four redistricting map scenarios from the law firm Pointer Spruill, with public and council feedback to follow. The agenda and consent items were adopted; discussion acknowledged donations supporting the police and fire departments, but the transcript provides no amounts or donor details. No other specific contract awards or purchasing decisions were identified.
